About ready to start
Well I am about ready to start around here totally for the housework. I do get a break for about an hour or so around here since I have to be up to the doctors office today. All I can say is that now I have it easy around the household and like it all around here while I am at it. Since alot of laundery will be done today yet again and other normal cleaning this should be good to see how far I really get for the day. Between the lines and the drying racks I should be able to get about 6 loads of laundry out if not more around here to say the least and both bathrooms clean yet again. There is always something to do for the place and it never fails that I am never board here in the house now. I can always watch the traffic while I take a break also here inbetween cleaning sessions. With that being said I am getting the laundery done with half of what I used in the trailer for the deturgent and the fabric softener also. It amazes me in what I went thru with my Niece there in the can. Now it is like I am streaching things out to the max once again and do not mind it one bit at all. Even my Husband noticed that things were lasting longer around the place yesterday. So now I will be reheating leftovers also while I am at it for the week here and my some have already asked in what I will make for the week. All I can say is let me pull the sandwich maker out and I can come up with alot of things to eat that are a combination of the left overs. Sometimes it is nuts in how I get food out around here and it is better when I come up with things for the place than others. So now with everything going on for the day I can say that it is not so bad at all when I start cleaning and cooking for the place without anyone under foot totally while I am trying to get things done. I am really enjoying my time alone around here. I get all week of somewhat worrying about my Husband being on the road here and afew other things of course. It is nothing like when my Niece was here also. So now I will be doing what I want to do for the place and be done with it for the most part and take my good old sweet time doing what I have to do also. Maybe this is what some really do not understand and that is ok. I will be doing things on the cheap side and like it here in the household. There is alot of things that I have done on the cheep here and will continue to do so for the place and I have found several other things that will be done on the very cheap also here while I was at it last night for here. It amazes me that I am seeing more things that I can do on the very cheap for the place and my Husband does not mind it one bit at all in what and how I do things. He already knows that I will be going to Aldi's to shop for the main bulk of the food around here without a problem at all. Just like with Kmart for the cleaners and the laundery soap with alot of other things also while I am at it all. That is what gets to some folks that come over here totally is that I shop on the cheap and get alot of bang for my buck around the house. Even last night I got asked if I will be shopping over at Aldi more often for the place. I told the man yes and he loved it. With the 2nd kitchen going I can spend 40 dollars over at Aldi and get the bucket for my Husband over flowing. That is the funny part about the whole thing. Now with that I did pick other things up while I was there also for the household. I did have a cart full for the 98 dollars that I spent over at the store the last time I was there. Some folks do not know how to shop at all for the month. I can say that becuase of the complainers that come over. They do not get up before noon and miss alot of the meat deals at the meat counters. The last time I took one of the complainers out shopping with me I told her to stick with me and I could shop for the month in just one store and still get it under an amount for the place. Well 50 dollars later and I had enough of everything for the month at that time for my place and she could not believe it at all. Now at this point I will spend about 200 dollars on the month here and that is for 2 kitchens and other things for the household. We eat alot of chicken, rice, pasta, and frozen veggies here to say the least. I also get 8 bags worth of flour for 2 months for pizza, homemade bread, homemade muffins, and several other things also for the place. Some times the frozen veggies are cheaper than the can veggies in the stores. Also I get a 10 lb bag of taters while I am at it along with onions. I make a mix of food during the month and can get by with it for the place. My Husband knows when I start buying cheeses he will get at least once a month the homemade mac and cheese for dinner one night during the month here. With alot of things here I can make something on a very tight budget and my Husband knows that I can pull it all off for the place. It takes some time to get use to shopping on a budget and cooking with what you have also for a household.
